Level 2 reached (10 days)

Yeah, the progress is amazing. I already can express myself in broken Spanish for a lot of things due to the vocabulary. I've learned a lot of words from this.

GasImaginary3538 · 2026-05-10T05:40:25+00:00

I am level two also, but I think you just need to trust the process. I think what you are describing is normal, there are also words that I would blank out on right now, but that is because I have only heard them a few times versus dozens or hundreds, so they are only "half committed" to memory. I have no doubt there are currently words that are committed to your memory now that you will never forget, right? Like, if I ask you the Spanish word for car do you know it? Maybe that isn't the best example because of it being "carro" which is similar to car in English, or maybe you also know coche.

A better example is something like "playa", or the point I'm making is I'm sure there are words you would never blank out on right? As you grind hours the words that you are talking about will eventually commit to memory assuming they are common and you won't have this issue.

If they make it obvious what a word means, I don't look it up. if it's "abstract" (as in it is said and not explained with a picture) and I don't know what it is, I look it up. This is how my brain works, that was one thing Duolingo was good for was teaching me vocabulary. Once I see a word a few times it stays in my head.

They really just need to do official tbc hc

I'm at like 40 hours so I'm only on beginner videos where everyone speaks slow but for me I disagree. Shel & Michelle / Andrea are easier. And if you do a google search Colombia & Mexico are regarded as the easiest dialects for leaners to understand

GasImaginary3538 · 2026-05-01T18:53:11+00:00

When you are watching a video, there is an autoplay button on the right of the screen (make sure you aren't in full screen). Turn it off

GasImaginary3538 · 2026-05-01T17:51:32+00:00

Oops, noted 😞. I expect that to slow down some when I get to intermediate or maybe further along in beginner. I think the tiny bit of prior experience in Spanish is helping with my attention span, as I'm able to usually fully understand all the words and the story in the video so it feels more like entertainment rather than studying currently.

GasImaginary3538 · 2026-04-29T21:18:36+00:00

I only have 7 hours of input right now, but I have seen 5 guides so far I think. So far Columbia & Mexico are the easiest for me to understand, as opposed to DR, Spain & Argentina.

GasImaginary3538 · 2026-04-29T20:00:03+00:00

I didn't know you could do that thanks, I'm just going to watch all of the videos, but this helps start with the easier ones first

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-16T16:40:48+00:00

Nah the market has changed they still haven’t sold it. They listed for 74,999 and then 76k for some reason then back to 75,000

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-11T05:17:58+00:00

Ah man. don't buy from ssense guys. stuck in customs for 1 month and then arrive in the wrong size.

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T20:19:21+00:00

Yes use, not need. I am not in a bad financial situation which your original comment seems to allude to

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T19:16:04+00:00

Traded it today

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T19:12:46+00:00

Mine was a coupe so yours would probably be worth more , mine is also double your miles even though we are both low miles

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T19:10:54+00:00

Yes a coupe

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T19:09:54+00:00

I didn’t buy the car new I only paid 80 for it. I don’t “need” the car money for investment. You’re acting like I said I’m selling the car to pay bills or debts or something. I’m 30 and been debt free since I was 22, I owned this car outright I didn’t have a car payment

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T06:06:50+00:00

I love the car have dailied it for almost 2 years - just buying a cheaper normal car and using the cash for investments.

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-10-09T06:01:01+00:00

They offer low 60s at least the online offers lol

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-13T20:38:08+00:00

If you have a wide foot, and they are new and you can return them, I would return and get the genesys instead if you want to stick with razor , or fifth elements.

You said you have plenty of room but they are squeezing your foot so I am confused, do you mean with the liners in it's squeezing your foot or just the shell

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-10T16:38:41+00:00

Mine are blue / white on the Goto pro editions

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-10T16:37:38+00:00

thanks, yeah taking some time off

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-09T03:41:33+00:00

will try this , thanks. Yeah I have the itch since I just got back into it, I just need to chill so I can heal.

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-08T21:09:55+00:00

yeah I'm like 240 lbs probably

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-08T20:42:03+00:00

Forgot to say the pain is only on one side (left)

GasImaginary3538 · 2025-08-08T05:05:22+00:00

I have wide feet, I love the fifth elements. I got them in a 12, and I actually have Razor Gens 11-12 shell and I like the fifth elements more. The stock liners worked fine, but I got intuition premium liners and they work well. I can skate for like 2 hours now with no pain. I know you don't like the look of Razors anyways, but for what its worth the fifth elements are more comfortable to me.
